After a while, he heard a voice from inside. + +"Who's there?" said the voice. + +"It's Joe from the village," replied Joe. + +The door opened, and a old man invited him in. + +"What are you doing here?" the old man asked. + +Joe explained that he was exploring and looking for something unknown. + +"If you're looking for something new, then you have to keep on chewin'!" exclaimed the old man. + +So, Joe thanked the old man and took his advice.

Tim had used his calmness and a song to solve the conflict and make it away without any harm! +One sunny day, Jack built a sandcastle on the beach.

He then sectioned off the area, and before long both of them had finally found the teddy bear! + +The little 3 year old was so happy that he hugged the figure tightly, and the figure smiled back jollyly.

He points to a page with a big circle and many small dots. "This is the sun and the earth and the other planets. They are in the universe." + +"What is the universe?" Anna asks. She does not know this word. + +"The universe is everything that is out there, in the sky and beyond. It is very big and very far," Tom explains. He remembers what their dad told them once. + +Anna looks at the page and tries to imagine how big and far the universe is. She feels very small and curious. She wants to know more. + +"Can we go to the universe?" she asks. + +Tom shakes his head. "No, we cannot go to the universe. It is too far and too dangerous. We need a special ship and a special suit to go there. And we are too little." + +Anna feels sad. She wants to see the stars and the planets up close. She wonders what they are like. + +"Maybe when we are bigger, we can go to the universe," Tom says. He tries to cheer up his sister. "Maybe we can be astronauts and explore the universe. That would be fun." + +Anna smiles. She likes the idea of being an astronaut. She realizes that the universe is very amazing and that there is a lot to learn. She hugs her brother and says, "Thank you, Tom. You are very helpful. You teach me many things." + +Tom hugs her back and says, "You are welcome, Anna. You are very helpful too. You make me happy." + +They continue to look at the book and talk about the universe. They dream of being astronauts and having adventures. They are happy. +Anna and Ben are helpful youths. They like to sing songs for people who are sad or sick. One day, they go to the old home. The old home is where old people live. Some old people are lonely and need friends. + +Anna and Ben knock on the door of Mrs. Lee. Mrs. Lee is an old lady who likes flowers and birds. She is happy to see Anna and Ben. She invites them in and gives them cookies and milk. + +"Thank you for coming, Anna and Ben. You are very kind," Mrs. Lee says. + +"We are happy to see you, Mrs. Lee. We have a song for you. Do you want to hear it?" Anna asks. + +"Yes, please. I love songs. They make me feel young and cheerful," Mrs. Lee says. + +Anna and Ben sing a song about spring and sunshine. They sing with loud and clear voices. They sing with smiles and joy. Mrs. Lee listens and claps her hands. She sings along with some words. She feels warm and happy. + +"That was a beautiful song, Anna and Ben. You have made my day. You are wonderful singers and helpful youths. Thank you for your visit," Mrs. Lee says. + +"You are welcome, Mrs. Lee. We are glad you liked our song. We hope you have a good day. We will come again soon," Anna and Ben say. + +They hug Mrs. Lee and say goodbye. They leave the old home and walk to the park. They sing another song on the way. They are happy and helpful youths. They like to sing songs for people who are sad or sick. +Ben likes to write. He writes on paper, on walls, on books. He writes his name, his mom's name, his dog's name. He writes big and small, fast and slow, neat and messy. + +One day, Ben finds a new thing to write on. It is a big bottle of shampoo. It is in the bathroom, on the shelf. Ben thinks it is fun to write on the bottle. He writes with a marker. He writes Ben, mom, dog, and more. + +But mom does not think it is fun. She sees the bottle and gets angry. She says, "Ben, what did you do? You ruined the shampoo! You cannot write on things that are not yours!" She takes the marker and the bottle away. She makes Ben clean the bottle with a cloth. She says, "You have to be quiet and stay in your room. No more writing today." + +Ben feels sad. He likes to write, but he does not like to make mom angry. He goes to his room and sits on his bed. He sees his paper and his crayons. He thinks, maybe he can write on them. He picks up a crayon and starts to write. He writes, "I am sorry, mom. I love you." He hopes mom will see it and be happy. He hopes mom will let him write again. He writes quietly and carefully. He does not write on anything else. +Ben and Sam are friends. They like to play outside. Today, they have a hose and a bike. They want to have fun. + +"Look, Ben, I can speed on my bike!" Sam says. He rides his bike very fast. He goes up and down the hill. + +"Wow, Sam, you are so fast!" Ben says. He holds the hose. He has an idea. "Do you want to play a game?" + +"What game, Ben?" Sam asks. He stops his bike. + +"I will spray you with the hose. You have to dodge the water. If the water hits you, you lose. If you dodge the water, you win. Do you want to play?" Ben says. + +"OK, Ben, that sounds fun. But you have to be fair. You can't spray me too much or too hard. And you have to let me spray you too." Sam says. + +"OK, Sam, deal. Let's play!" Ben says. He turns on the hose. He aims at Sam. + +Sam speeds on his bike. He tries to dodge the water. He laughs. Ben sprays him with the hose. He laughs too. + +They play for a long time. They get wet and dirty. They have fun. They don't care that their clothes are brown. They are happy. +Lily and Sam were playing with their toys in the living room. Lily had a doll and Sam had a truck. They were having fun until Lily saw Sam's juice on the table. + +"Can I have some juice?" Lily asked Sam. + +"No, it's mine!" Sam said. He grabbed the juice and held it close to him. + +"Please, I'm thirsty!" Lily said. She tried to reach for the juice, but Sam pushed her away. + +"Go away, Lily! You have your own juice in the kitchen!" Sam said. He was being mean to Lily. + +Lily felt sad and angry. She wanted some juice too. She had an idea. She ran to the kitchen and got her juice. She came back to the living room and smiled at Sam. + +"Look, Sam, I have juice too!" Lily said. She held up her juice and pretended to drink it. + +Sam looked at Lily's juice. It was a different color than his. It was green. He was curious. + +"What kind of juice is that?" Sam asked Lily. + +"It's lemon juice. It's very yummy!" Lily said. She lied to Sam. She knew lemon juice was sour and not yummy. + +"Can I try some?" Sam asked Lily. + +"Sure, if you give me some of your juice!" Lily said. She wanted to trade with Sam. + +"Okay, fine!" Sam said. He gave Lily his juice and took Lily's juice. He opened the lid and drank some. + +"Yuck!" Sam said. He made a face and spit out the juice. It was sour and bitter. He did not like it at all. + +"Ha ha ha!" Lily said. She laughed at Sam. She drank some of Sam's juice. It was sweet and tasty. She liked it a lot. + +"That's not fair, Lily! You tricked me!" Sam said. He was mad at Lily. + +Lily stuck out her tongue at Sam. She did not care. She had Sam's juice and he had her juice. She thought she was smart. + +Sam looked at Lily. He felt sorry for himself. He wished he had not been mean to Lily. He wished he had shared his juice with her. He learned a lesson. He signed and said: + +"Sorry, Lily. Can we trade back?" +Anna and Ben were bored. They wanted to play, but it was raining outside. They asked their mom if they could watch a movie. + +"Okay, but only one movie," mom said. "Then you have to do something else." + +Anna and Ben were happy. They ran to the living room and looked at the movies. They had many movies, but they could not agree on which one to watch. + +"I want to watch the movie with the princess and the dragon," Anna said. + +"No, I want to watch the movie with the cars and the trucks," Ben said. + +They started to argue and shout. Mom heard them and came to the living room. + +"Stop it, you two," mom said. "You have to share and be gentle. How about you watch the movie with the animals and the forest? It is a nice movie and you both like it." + +Anna and Ben thought about it. They liked the movie with the animals and the forest. It had a bear, a fox, a rabbit, and a bird. They nodded and said sorry to each other. + +"Okay, mom, we will watch that movie," Anna said. + +"Thank you, mom, we will be gentle," Ben said. + +Mom smiled and set the movie for them. She gave them some popcorn and juice and sat with them on the couch. They watched the movie and enjoyed it. They laughed and hugged and learned about the animals and the forest. They were happy and gentle. Mom was happy too. +Lily was a young girl who liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Anna. Anna had long hair, a pink dress and a smile. Lily and Anna did everything together. They had tea parties, read books and sang songs. + +One day, Lily's mom said they had to go to the store. Lily wanted to bring Anna with her, but mom said no. She said Anna might get lost or dirty at the store. Lily was sad. She did not want to leave Anna alone. She hugged Anna and said, "I will be back soon. Don't be scared. I love you." + +Lily and mom went to the store. They bought milk, eggs and bread. Lily saw many things at the store. She saw toys, books and candy. But she did not want any of them. She only wanted Anna. She missed Anna very much. + +When Lily and mom came back home, Lily ran to her room. She looked for Anna on her bed, but she did not see her. She looked under her bed, in her closet and in her drawers, but she did not find her. She started to cry. She said, "Where is Anna? Where is my doll?" + +Mom heard Lily crying and came to her room. She saw Lily looking for Anna. She said, "Lily, what's wrong? Why are you crying?" + +Lily said, "Mom, Anna is gone. I can't find her. She was on my bed when we left. Someone took her. I want Anna back." + +Mom hugged Lily and said, "Don't worry, Lily. Anna is not gone. She is here. I took her with me to the store. I wanted to surprise you. I bought her a new dress and a hat. Look, she is in this bag." + +Mom opened the bag and showed Lily Anna. Anna had a blue dress and a yellow hat. She still had her long hair and her smile. Lily was happy. She said, "Anna, you are here. You are so pretty. Thank you, mom. You are the best." + +Lily took Anna and hugged her. She said, "I'm sorry I left you, Anna. I will never leave you again. You are my best friend. I love you." + +Mom smiled and said, "I'm glad you are happy, Lily. I love you too. Now, do you want to have a tea party with Anna and me?" + +Lily nodded and said, "Yes, mom.

He shows her the rock. + +"Wow, Tom, it is so shiny!" Amy says. She wants to touch it. + +But then, a big boy comes. He is bad. He takes the rock from Tom. + +"Hey, give it back!" Tom says. He is angry. + +"No, it is mine now!" the big boy says. He is mean. + +Tom and Amy are sad. They want the rock back. They listen to the big boy. He laughs at them. + +"Ha ha, you are silly! This is not a mineral, it is a candy!" the big boy says. He puts the rock in his mouth. + +But then, he makes a face. He spits out the rock. He is in pain. + +"Ow, ow, ow! This is not a candy, it is a mineral!" the big boy says. He cries. + +Tom and Amy are surprised. They laugh at the big boy. + +"Ha ha, you are silly! You should not eat a mineral, it is bad for you!" Tom says. + +"Yes, you should listen to us, we know better!" Amy says. + +They take the rock back. They are happy. They play with the mineral. They are smart. +Tim and Liz are playing in the park. They see a big slide with a fake tiger on top. The tiger is orange and black and has sharp teeth. + +"Wow, look at that tiger!" Tim says. "It is so big and scary!" + +"I want to go on the slide!" Liz says. "The tiger is not real, it is just for fun!" + +They run to the slide and climb the ladder. Liz goes first. She slides down fast and laughs. She lands on the soft grass. + +"Your turn, Tim!" she says. + +Tim is a little afraid of the tiger. He thinks it might bite him. He goes slowly to the top of the slide. He looks at the tiger. It has a rope around its neck. The rope is tied to a tree. + +"Hello, tiger," Tim says. "Are you nice or mean?" + +The tiger does not answer. It does not move. It is fake. + +Tim feels brave. He decides to hang from the rope. He grabs the rope and swings like a monkey. He thinks he is very strong and cool. + +"Look at me, Liz!" he says. "I am hanging from the tiger!" + +Liz looks at Tim.

I dare you to go near the dog and say 'woof'." They both looked at each other and giggled. + +They decided to go together and be brave. They walked slowly towards the dog, holding hands. The dog saw them and growled. Lily and Ben stopped and felt scared. They wanted to run away, but they also wanted to be brave. + +They looked at each other and nodded. Then they did what they dared. Lily winked at the dog and Ben said "woof". The dog was surprised and stopped growling. It tilted its head and wagged its tail. It looked friendly. + +Lily and Ben smiled and went closer to the dog. They petted it and scratched its ears. The dog licked their faces and wagged its tail more. It was not scary at all. It was a nice dog. Lily and Ben were happy. They had made a new friend.

They wanted to see what was on the other side. + +"Let's go, Tom," Lily said. "Maybe there are some animals there." + +"OK, Lily," Tom said. "But be careful. We don't want to get lost." + +They crawled through the hole and found a field with many flowers and trees. They saw a rabbit hopping around. It was white and fluffy. It had long ears and a pink nose. It was adorable. + +"Look, Tom, a rabbit!" Lily said. "Can we catch it and take it home?" + +"I don't know, Lily," Tom said. "Maybe it has a family. Maybe it doesn't like us." + +But Lily was already running after the rabbit. She wanted to pet it and hug it. She did not see the trap that was hidden under some leaves. It was a metal cage with a door that closed when something stepped on it. + +Lily stepped on the trap and the door closed behind her. She was stuck inside the cage. She was scared and sad. She cried for help. + +"Tom, Tom, help me!" Lily shouted. "I'm in a trap!" + +Tom heard Lily's voice and ran to her. He saw the trap and the rabbit. The rabbit was also in the trap. It was scared and sad too. It tried to escape but it could not. + +"Tom, Tom, please repair the trap!" Lily begged. "Please let me and the rabbit out!" + +Tom looked at the trap. He saw a wire that was holding the door. He pulled the wire and the door opened. Lily and the rabbit were free. They ran out of the trap and hugged Tom. + +"Thank you, Tom, thank you!" Lily said. "You are the best brother ever!" + +"You're welcome, Lily," Tom said. "But we should go back now. We don't belong here. This is the rabbit's home." + +They said goodbye to the rabbit and crawled back through the hole. They went back to the garden and told their mom what happened. She was glad they were safe and sound. She told them to never go through the hole again. She said she would repair the fence tomorrow. Tom and Lily agreed. They learned their lesson. They played with their toys and forgot about the rabbit. But they never forgot how adorable it was. +Ben and Mia like to play in the park. They see a big log on the ground.

"Maybe we can find something cool!" + +"OK, Lily!" Tim said. "But be careful. The rocks are hard and sharp." + +They started to climb the hill. They used their hands and feet to hold on to the rocks. They struggled to find a good path. Sometimes they slipped and scratched their knees. But they did not give up. They wanted to reach the top. + +"Look, Tim!" Lily said. "I found a shiny stone! It is smooth and round and has many colors. It is so cool!" + +She picked up the stone and put it in her pocket. She was happy. She wanted to show it to Tim. + +"Wow, Lily!" Tim said. "That is a cool stone! Can I see it?" + +"Sure, Tim!" Lily said. "But you have to catch me first!" + +She ran down the hill with the stone in her pocket. Tim ran after her. They laughed and shouted. They had fun. They forgot about the rocks and the scratches. They only cared about the cool stone and their friendship. +Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They saw a big truck with a picture of ice cream on it. They ran to the truck and asked for ice cream. + +"Can I have a cone with chocolate and vanilla, please?" Lily said. + +"Me too, me too!" Tom said. + +The ice cream man smiled and gave them each a cone. They licked their ice cream and felt happy. + +But then, a mean boy came and snatched Tom's cone. He laughed and ran away. + +"Hey, that's not nice! Give it back!" Tom shouted. + +Lily felt angry and sad for Tom. She wanted to help him. She looked around and saw a pair of scissors on the grass. Someone had left them there. She had an idea. + +She picked up the scissors and ran after the mean boy. She caught up with him and cut his cone in half. She gave one half to Tom and kept the other half for herself. + +"Ha, ha, now you have less ice cream than us!" Lily said. + +The mean boy cried and threw his cone away. He ran away too. + +Lily and Tom smiled and hugged each other. They shared their ice cream and felt mighty. They had taught the mean boy a lesson.

She could do many tricks, like stand on her hind legs, nod her head, and roll over. + +One day, Lily and Ben wanted to surprise Molly with a treat. They found some carrots in the kitchen and hid them in their pockets. They ran to the barn, where Molly was resting. They saw Molly's ears twitch and her eyes open. + +"Hello, Molly!" Lily said. "We have something for you. Can you guess what it is?" + +Molly snorted and looked at them curiously. She smelled the carrots in their pockets and licked her lips. + +"Shh, don't tell her!" Ben whispered to Lily. "Let's make her do a trick first. Molly, can you stand on your hind legs?" + +Molly nodded and stood up on her back feet. She balanced herself and looked proud. + +"Good girl, Molly!" Lily and Ben cheered. "You are so smart and gifted. Here is your treat."

They were her best friends too. +Lily and Max were best friends. They liked to play in the park with their toys. One day, they found a big, thick book on a bench. It had many pictures and words inside. + +"Look, Lily, a book!" Max said. "Maybe it has a story." + +Lily opened the book and tried to read. She knew some words, but not all. She pointed at a picture of a dog. "This is a dog. It says woof." + +Max nodded. He pointed at a picture of a cake. "This is a cake. It says yum." + +They turned the pages and saw more pictures. They saw a house, a car, a ball, a flower, and a star. They said the words they knew and made sounds for the ones they didn't. + +Then they saw a picture of a family. There was a mom, a dad, a boy, and a girl. They were smiling and hugging each other. + +Lily looked at Max and said, "This is a family.

They use all the powder in the box, but it is not enough. They look around the room for more powder. They see a small jar on the shelf. It has a label that says "baking powder". + +"Maybe we can use this powder," Anna says. "It looks like our powder." + +"Let's try it," Ben says. He climbs on a chair and reaches for the jar. He opens it and pours some powder on their mountain. + +Suddenly, the powder starts to bubble and fizz. It makes a loud noise and a bad smell. The powder mountain grows and grows. It increases so much that it spills over the table and onto the floor. + +"Uh-oh," Anna says. "What is happening?" + +"I don't know," Ben says. "This is not our powder. This is a different powder. A bad powder." + +They hear footsteps outside the door. It is their mom. She is coming to check on them. + +"Quick, hide the powder!" Anna says. "Maybe she won't see it." + +But it is too late. The door opens and their mom sees the mess. She sees the powder everywhere. She sees the jar on the shelf. She sees Anna and Ben with powder on their faces and hands. + +"Anna! Ben! What have you done?" she says. "This is not your powder. This is baking powder. It reacts with water and makes gas. You can't play with it. It is dangerous and messy." + +She is not happy. She is angry and worried. She makes them clean up the powder. She tells them to never touch the baking powder again. She tells them to only play with their own powder. + +Anna and Ben are sorry. They did not know the powder was different. They did not mean to make a mess. They say they are sorry to their mom. They hug her and promise to be careful. + +They still like to play with powder.

Lily and Ben both wanted the piece. They each grabbed one half and pulled hard. + +"Let go, it's mine!" Lily said. + +"No, it's mine!" Ben said. + +They pulled and pulled until the piece broke into two smaller pieces. They both looked at the pieces and felt sad. They had ruined the ancient puzzle. + +They looked at each other and said they were sorry. They hugged and said they loved each other. They decided to share the pieces and try to fix the puzzle.

Good job, Tom." + +The doctor says, "You are almost done, Tom. I just need to measure how tall you are and how much you weigh. Can you stand on this scale for me?" Tom stands on the scale. He sees a number. The doctor says, "You are growing very fast, Tom. You are a big boy now." Tom smiles. He likes to be big. + +The doctor says, "You are all done, Tom. You are a very good and brave boy. You can have a sticker and a lollipop." Tom says, "Thank you, doctor. I like stickers and lollipops." He chooses a blue sticker and a red lollipop.

She was not happy. + +"What happened here?" Mom asked, frowning. + +"We were playing with the yarn, but we broke it and made a knot," Ben said, hanging his head. + +"We are sorry, Mom," Lily said, sniffling. + +Mom sighed and picked up the yarn. She looked at the knot and shook her head. + +"You should have listened to me and been more careful. Yarn is not a toy, it is for knitting and making things. Now I can't use it anymore. You wasted it and made a mess," Mom said. + +Lily and Ben felt very bad. They knew they had done something wrong. + +"Can we help you clean up, Mom?" Ben asked. + +"Yes, you can. And next time, please play with something else. And always listen to me when I tell you something. I only want you to be safe and happy," Mom said. + +Lily and Ben nodded and helped Mom clean up the mess. They learned their lesson and never played with yarn again. They said sorry to Mom and gave her a hug. Mom forgave them and hugged them back. She loved them very much. +Sara and Ben were playing on the sand near the sea. They liked to make castles and dig holes with their buckets and spades. They saw some big waves coming and ran away from the water. They did not want to get wet. + +"Look, Sara, a starfish!" Ben said, pointing to a shiny thing on the sand. He ran to pick it up and show it to his sister. Sara followed him and saw the starfish. It was orange and had five arms. It looked pretty, but also sad. + +"Ben, we have to put it back in the sea. It needs water to live. It is helpless on the sand," Sara said. She took the starfish from Ben's hand and ran to the edge of the water. She threw the starfish into the sea and hoped it would be happy. + +But the starfish did not swim away. It stayed on the surface of the water, still and quiet. Sara and Ben watched it and wondered what was wrong. Then they saw a big shadow under the water. It was a shark. The shark saw the starfish and opened its mouth. It was hungry and wanted to eat it. + +"Help! Help!" Sara and Ben shouted. They wanted to save the starfish, but they were too far and too scared. They felt helpless and sad. They wished they had not taken the starfish from the sand. + +The shark bit the starfish and swallowed it. Sara and Ben cried. They learned a lesson. They should not touch the things that belong to the sea. They should leave them alone and let them be. + +They went back to their sand castles and tried to forget what they saw. They wiped their tears and played some more. They hoped the sea would forgive them and not be angry. They hoped the starfish would find peace and not be in pain. They hoped they would never see a shark again. +Tom and Lily are playing with blocks. They want to make a big tower. They take turns to put blocks on top of each other. They are having fun. + +But then, Ben comes. Ben is a big boy. He does not like to share. He sees Tom and Lily's tower. He wants to knock it down. He runs to the tower and pushes it with his hand. + +"Stop!" Tom and Lily shout. "That is our tower! We are not finished!" + +Ben does not listen. He laughs and pushes harder. The tower falls down. The blocks go everywhere. Tom and Lily are sad and angry. + +"Why did you do that?" Lily asks. "That was not nice!" + +Ben shrugs. "I don't care. It was just a tower. It was not normal. It was too high." + +Tom and Lily look at each other. They have an idea. They pick up some blocks and make a sign. The sign says "No Ben". They put the sign in front of their tower. They start to build again. + +Ben sees the sign. He is confused. He does not know what it means. He tries to go to the tower. But Tom and Lily stop him. + +"Can't you read?" Tom says. "This is our tower. You are not welcome. Go away!" + +Ben feels bad. He realizes he was wrong. He says sorry to Tom and Lily. He asks if he can help them build the tower. Tom and Lily think for a moment. They decide to give Ben a chance. They say yes. They let Ben join them. They finish the tower together. They are happy. The tower is normal and nice. +Sara and Tom were playing in the garden. They liked to make mud pies and pretend they were chefs. Sara had a big red bucket and Tom had a small blue one. They filled them with mud and water and stirred them with sticks. + +"Look, I made a cake!" Sara said, showing Tom her bucket. "It has berries and nuts on top." + +"That looks yummy!" Tom said. "Can I have a slice?" + +"Sure, but we have to cook it first," Sara said. "Let's put it in the sun. It will get hot and burn." + +They put their buckets in the sun and went to play with their ball. They had fun kicking and throwing it. They forgot about their mud pies. + +After a while, their mom called them. "Sara, Tom, it's time to come in and have a snack. Wash your hands and be tidy." + +Sara and Tom ran to the house. They washed their hands and sat at the table. Mom gave them some cookies and milk. + +"Did you have fun in the garden?" Mom asked. + +"Yes, we did," Sara said. "We made mud pies and put them in the sun to burn." + +Mom smiled. "That sounds creative. Where are your mud pies now?" + +Sara and Tom looked at each other. They remembered their buckets in the sun. They jumped from their chairs and ran to the garden. + +They saw their buckets in the sun. But they were not hot and burned. They were cold and wet. And there were many ants on them. The ants liked the berries and nuts. + +"Yuck!" Sara said. "Our mud pies are ruined!" + +"Let's make new ones," Tom said. "But this time, let's eat them before the ants do." + +"OK," Sara said. "But we have to be quick. Mom will call us for lunch soon." + +They grabbed their buckets and sticks and started to make new mud pies. They hoped they would be yummy. But they did not know yet. +Anna and Ben are friends. They like to swim in the pool. One day, they see a shiny coin at the bottom of the pool. Anna wants to get the coin. She says to Ben, "Look, a coin! I can swim and get it. I am clever." + +Ben says, "No, Anna, don't do that. The pool is deep. You can't swim that far. You will be tired and scared. Let the coin be. It is not ours." + +But Anna does not listen to Ben. She dives into the pool and swims to the coin. She grabs the coin and feels happy. She tries to swim back to the top, but she can't. She is too tired and scared. She can't breathe. She cries for help. + +Ben sees Anna in trouble. He is worried. He jumps into the pool and swims to Anna. He holds her hand and pulls her to the top. He helps her get out of the pool. He says to Anna, "Are you okay, Anna? You were not clever. You were silly. You could have drowned. You should listen to me. I am your friend. I care for you." + +Anna feels sorry. She says to Ben, "I am sorry, Ben. You are right. I was silly. I should listen to you. You are my friend. You care for me. You are clever and brave. Thank you for saving me. Here, you can have the coin. It is yours." + +Ben smiles and hugs Anna. He says, "Thank you, Anna. But I don't want the coin. I want you to be safe and happy. That is more important. Let's play something else. How about we blow bubbles?" + +Anna nods and smiles. She says, "Yes, let's blow bubbles. That sounds fun. I love you, Ben." + +They blow bubbles and laugh. They are friends. They are happy. +Lily liked to play with her mom's things. She liked to wear her mom's hats and shoes and scarves. She liked to look at her mom's jewelry and books and pictures. But most of all, she liked to smell her mom's perfume. It was in a pretty bottle on the dresser. It smelled like flowers and candy and something else that Lily did not know. + +One day, when her mom was out, Lily decided to play with the perfume. She climbed on a chair and reached for the bottle. She opened it and sniffed it. It was very strong. She liked it. She wanted to smell like her mom. She poured some perfume on her hands and rubbed it on her neck and arms and hair. She poured some more and rubbed it on her dress and her doll and her blanket. She poured some more and rubbed it on the chair and the dresser and the carpet. She poured some more and rubbed it on the wall and the window and the door. She poured and poured until the bottle was empty. + +She was very happy. She smelled like her mom. She set the bottle back on the dresser and got down from the chair. She ran to the living room to show her dad. He was watching TV. He smelled her before he saw her. He turned around and frowned. + +"Lily, what did you do?" he asked. + +"I played with mom's perfume. I smell like mom. Do you like it?" she said. + +"No, Lily, I don't like it. It's too strong. It hurts my nose. And you wasted mom's perfume. It was very special to her. She got it from her grandma. She only used it on special days. She will be very sad and angry when she sees what you did. You should not play with mom's things without asking. You should be sorry and say sorry," he said. + +Lily felt bad. She did not want to hurt her dad's nose. She did not want to waste her mom's perfume. She did not want to make her mom sad and angry. She did not know it was special. She did not know it was from her grandma. She did not know she should ask. She was sorry. She said sorry. + +"I'm sorry, dad. I'm sorry, mom. I won't play with mom's things without asking. I won't use mom's perfume. I love you," she said. + +Her dad hugged her and kissed her. He said he loved her too. He said he forgave her. He said he would help her clean up the mess. He said he would talk to her mom and explain what happened. He said they would still love her no matter what. He said they would teach her how to respect other people's things. He said they would find another way for her to smell like her mom. + +Lily learned a lesson. She learned that playing with other people's things without asking is wrong. She learned that wasting things is wrong. She learned that some things are special and have stories. She learned that saying sorry is good. She learned that her parents love her and want her to be good. She learned that she can smell like her mom by hugging her and kissing her and telling her she loves her. She was happy. She smelled like love. +Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a basket with toys in it. They are very happy. They take the basket and run to the slide. + +"Look, Tom, I have a ball!" Mia says. She throws the ball in the air and catches it. + +"I have a car!" Tom says. He makes the car go vroom-vroom on the slide. + +They play with the toys for a long time. They forget about the basket. They leave it on the grass. + +A big dog comes to the park. He sees the basket. He smells the toys. He wants to play with them. He runs to the basket and grabs it with his teeth. He shakes it hard. The toys fall out. He picks one and runs away. He does this again and again. He makes a loud noise. + +Tom and Mia hear the noise. They look at the grass. They see the dog and the toys. They are very sad. + +"Hey, that's our basket!" Tom shouts. He runs to the dog. He tries to get the basket back. + +"Bad dog, bad dog!" Mia cries. She runs after Tom. She tries to help him. + +But the dog is too fast and too strong. He runs away with the basket and the toys. He leaves Tom and Mia with nothing. + +Tom and Mia sit on the grass. They hug each other. They cry. + +They lose the basket and the toys. They are very sad. +Sara and Ben were going to the park with Mom. They liked the park. It had swings and slides and a big pond. But today it was gloomy. The sky was gray and the wind was cold. Mom said they had to delay their trip. + +"Why, Mom?" Sara asked. + +"Because it might rain soon. And we don't want to get wet and sick, do we?" Mom said. + +"No, Mom," Ben said. "But can we go later?" + +"Maybe, if the weather gets better. But for now, we have to stay inside and play with our toys," Mom said. + +Sara and Ben were sad. They wanted to go to the park. They did not like to play with their toys. They had played with them too many times. They looked out the window and hoped the sun would come out. + +But the sun did not come out. Instead, it rained harder and harder. The pond in the park became bigger and bigger. And the mosquitoes came out. They liked the water. They buzzed and bit and made people itch. + +The next day, the rain stopped. The sky was blue and the wind was warm. Mom said they could go to the park now. + +"Yay, Mom!" Sara and Ben said. They put on their hats and shoes and ran to the car. + +But when they got to the park, they saw something bad. The park was full of mosquitoes. They were everywhere. They flew around the swings and slides and the big pond. They made a loud noise. + +"Uh-oh, Mom," Sara said. + +"Oh, no, Ben said. + +"Sorry, kids," Mom said. "We have to delay our trip again. We can't play in the park with all these mosquitoes. They will bite us and make us itch. We have to go back home and find another place to play." + +Sara and Ben were very sad. They wanted to play in the park. They did not like the mosquitoes. They wished they had gone to the park yesterday, when it was gloomy. +Lily and Tom were twins who liked to ride their bikes. They had small bikes with four wheels that helped them balance. One day, they saw a big road near their house. The road had many cars and trucks that went very fast. Lily and Tom wanted to cross the road and see what was on the other side. + +They asked their mom if they could go, but she said no. She said the road was too dangerous and they had to stay on the sidewalk. Lily and Tom were sad and angry. They thought they were big enough to cross the road by themselves. They waited until their mom was busy and then they sneaked out of the house. They took their bikes and went to the road. + +They looked both ways and saw a gap between the cars. They decided to go quickly and pedal hard. They did not see an elderly lady who was walking on the sidewalk. She had a cane and a bag of groceries. She saw the twins and tried to stop them, but it was too late. Lily and Tom bumped into her and made her fall. The lady dropped her bag and her groceries spilled everywhere. Lily and Tom also fell and scraped their knees. They started to cry. + +The lady was very kind and did not scold them. She helped them get up and checked their wounds. She said they were lucky they did not get hit by a car. She said they should never cross the road without an adult. She said they should listen to their mom and be careful. She said they could succeed in many things if they were smart and safe. + +Lily and Tom felt sorry and ashamed. They apologized to the lady and helped her pick up her groceries. They thanked her for being nice and gave her a hug. They took their bikes and went back to their house. They told their mom what happened and said they were sorry. Their mom was angry and worried, but also relieved. She hugged them and said she loved them. She said they should never do that again. She said they could go to the park with her later and play on the swings. Lily and Tom nodded and smiled. They learned their lesson and never tried to cross the road by themselves again. +Lisa loved to look at the sky. She liked the blue color and the white clouds. Sometimes she saw birds and planes. She wanted to fly in the sky too. + +One day, she asked her mom, "Mom, can I fly in the sky?" + +Her mom smiled and said, "No, Lisa, you can't fly in the sky. Only birds and planes can fly in the sky. You are a human, and humans can't fly." + +Lisa was sad. She said, "But I want to fly in the sky. It looks so fun and pretty. Please, mom, let me fly in the sky." + +Her mom hugged her and said, "I'm sorry, Lisa, but I can't permit you to fly in the sky. It's too dangerous and far. But you can do something else. You can make a paper plane and throw it in the air. Then you can watch it fly in the sky for a little while. Would you like that?" + +Lisa nodded. She said, "Yes, mom, I would like that. Thank you, mom. You are so nice and smart." + +Her mom helped her make a paper plane. She showed her how to fold the paper and make a pointy nose and wings. Lisa decorated her paper plane with stickers and crayons. She made it look adorable. + +Then she went outside with her mom. She threw her paper plane in the air. She saw it fly in the sky. She clapped her hands and laughed. She said, "Look, mom, my paper plane is flying in the sky. It's so cool and beautiful. I love my paper plane." + +Her mom said, "I'm glad you love your paper plane, Lisa. You did a great job making it. You are so creative and talented." + +Lisa hugged her mom and said, "Thank you, mom. You are the best mom in the world. I love you." + +They watched the paper plane fly in the sky until it landed on the grass. Then they picked it up and threw it again. They had a lot of fun playing with the paper plane. They also looked at the sky and saw different shapes in the clouds. They felt happy and close. +Tim and Anna were playing in the park with their toy cars. They liked to make them zoom and crash on the grass and the sand. Sometimes they pretended they were racing or chasing each other. + +One day, they saw a big hole in the ground near the swings. It was a drain that the workers had opened to fix something. Tim and Anna were curious and went closer to look. + +"Wow, look at that!" Tim said. "It's enormous! I wonder what's inside." + +"Maybe it's a secret tunnel," Anna said. "Or a monster's cave." + +They leaned over the edge of the drain and peered into the darkness. They could hear water dripping and echoing. They felt a little scared, but also excited. + +Suddenly, they heard a loud roar from the drain. It sounded like a lion or a bear. Tim and Anna screamed and jumped back. They dropped their toy cars into the hole. + +They ran away from the drain as fast as they could. They did not recognize the sound. They thought it was a real animal that wanted to eat them. + +They ran to their mom, who was sitting on a bench with a book. They hugged her and told her what happened. + +"Mom, mom, there's a monster in the drain!" Tim said. + +"It roared at us and took our cars!" Anna said. + +Their mom looked surprised and worried. She took them by the hand and walked with them to the drain. She wanted to see what was going on. + +When they got there, they saw a man in a yellow helmet and a blue suit. He was holding a big machine that made a lot of noise. He was the worker who was fixing the drain. + +He saw them and smiled. He turned off the machine and said, "Hi, kids. Sorry if I scared you. I was just testing this generator. It makes a lot of power, but also a lot of noise." + +He pointed to the drain and said, "Look, there are your cars. They're not hurt. Do you want them back?" + +Tim and Anna looked at the drain and saw their toy cars lying on the bottom. They felt relieved and happy. They realized that the roar was not a monster, but the machine. + +They nodded and said, "Yes, please." + +The worker put on a glove and reached into the drain. He picked up their cars and handed them to them. + +"Here you go. Be careful next time, okay? This drain can be dangerous. Don't go near it again." + +Tim and Anna thanked the worker and apologized for bothering him. They took their cars and hugged their mom. + +They learned a lesson that day. They learned that sometimes things are not what they seem. They learned to recognize the difference between real and pretend. And they learned to stay away from drains. +Ben likes to play with his cars. He has many cars of different colors and sizes. He makes them zoom and beep on the floor. He pretends they are going to the park, the shop, or the zoo. + +One day, his mom tells him it is time to tidy up his cars. Ben does not want to stop playing. He says, "No, mom, I want to play more!" His mom says, "You can play later, but first you have to put your cars in the box. It is good to be tidy and not leave your toys everywhere." + +Ben pauses. He thinks for a moment. He does not like to make his mom sad. He also likes to have a tidy room. He says, "OK, mom, I will tidy up my cars." He starts to pick up his cars and put them in the box. He finds his favorite car, the red one with the blue cap. He gives it a hug and says, "I love you, car. You are my best friend." + +His mom smiles and says, "You are a good boy, Ben. I am proud of you. You can keep your favorite car with you, if you want. But the rest of the cars have to go in the box." Ben nods and says, "Thank you, mom. I will keep my car with me. But I will also be tidy and put the other cars in the box." + +He finishes tidying up his cars and puts the box in the corner. He holds his car with the cap and says, "Now we can play more, car. Where do you want to go?" He makes his car zoom and beep on the floor again. He is happy and so is his mom. +Sara and Tom like to jog with their dog Spot. They jog in the park where there are many flowers and trees. Spot likes to chase the birds and the squirrels. Sara and Tom laugh when they see Spot run fast. + +One day, they see a new plant in the park. It is green and has many sharp points. Sara thinks it is lovely. She wants to touch it. Tom says, "No, Sara, don't touch it. It can hurt you. It is a cactus." + +But Sara does not listen to Tom. She runs to the cactus and reaches out her hand. She feels a prick on her finger. She cries out loud. "Ow, ow, ow! It hurts, it hurts!" + +Tom and Spot run to Sara. They see blood on her finger. They are scared. They try to help Sara. They look for a band-aid or a cloth. But they cannot find anything. They do not know what to do. + +Sara keeps crying. She feels more pain. She wishes she had listened to Tom. She wishes she had not touched the cactus. She thinks it is not lovely at all. She thinks it is mean and ugly. She is very sorry. +Anna and Ben like to play with chalk on the sidewalk. They draw big circles, stars, and flowers in many colors. They have fun making their own art. + +One day, a big dog comes running towards them. He is black and furry, and he barks loudly. Anna and Ben are scared. They drop their chalk and run away. The dog chases them, but he does not want to hurt them. He just wants to play. + +The dog reaches the sidewalk and sees the chalk. He thinks they are bones. He tries to bite them, but they are hard and taste bad. He spits them out and scatters them all over the place. He makes a big mess. + +Anna and Ben hide behind a tree and watch the dog. They are angry and sad. They say to each other: + +"Look what he did to our art! He ruined it!" + +"He is a bad dog! He should go away!" + +But then they see something. The dog is not mean. He is just silly. He starts to roll on the chalk and rub his fur on it. He makes himself colorful and funny. He wags his tail and jumps around. He looks happy and playful. + +Anna and Ben laugh. They think he is cute and funny. They say to each other: + +"Maybe he is not a bad dog. Maybe he just wanted to join us." + +"He is a colorful dog! He looks like a rainbow!" + +They decide to give him a chance. They come out from behind the tree and call him. They say: + +"Hey, dog! Do you want to play with us?" + +The dog hears them and runs to them. He licks their faces and wags his tail. He is friendly and gentle. He says: + +"Woof, woof! Yes, I want to play with you!" + +Anna and Ben smile. They pick up their chalk and draw more shapes on the sidewalk. They invite the dog to join them. They say: + +"Here, dog! You can have some chalk too!" + +The dog takes a piece of chalk in his mouth and tries to draw with it. He makes wiggly lines and dots. He is not very good at it, but he tries. He is happy and proud. He says: + +"Woof, woof! Look what I did!" + +Anna and Ben clap their hands and praise him. They say: + +"Good job, dog! You are a good artist!" + +They hug him and pet him. They make friends with him. They play together until the sun sets. They are happy and grateful. They say: + +"Thank you, dog! You are a good friend!" + +The dog says: + +"Woof, woof! Thank you, Anna and Ben! You are good friends too!" + +They are a graceful trio. They are colorful and bright. They are a beautiful sight. +Sara liked to build structures with her blocks. She made towers, bridges, houses and castles. She was very proud of her structures and showed them to her mom and dad. They smiled and said they were attractive. + +One day, Sara had a play date with Ben. Ben also liked to build structures, but he did not like to share. He wanted all the blocks for himself. He took some of Sara's blocks and made his own structure. Sara was sad and angry. She said, "Ben, that is not nice. You have to share. Those are my blocks." + +Ben did not listen. He said, "No, they are mine. My structure is better than yours. Yours is ugly." He pushed Sara's structure and made it fall. Sara cried and ran to her mom. + +Mom saw what happened and hugged Sara. She said, "Sara, I'm sorry. Ben was very rude. He should not have taken your blocks or broken your structure. Your structure was very attractive and creative. You worked hard on it." + +Mom also talked to Ben. She said, "Ben, you have to apologize to Sara. You were very mean. You have to share and be kind. You can't just take things that are not yours or destroy things that belong to others. That is not how you make friends." + +Ben looked down and frowns. He realized he was wrong. He said, "I'm sorry, Sara. I was selfish and mean. Can I help you rebuild your structure? Can we be friends?" + +Sara wiped her tears and smiled. She said, "Yes, Ben. Thank you for saying sorry. We can be friends. We can build structures together and share our blocks." + +Mom smiled and said, "That's good. I'm proud of you both. Sharing and being kind are important values. They make you happy and make others happy too." +Lily and Ben like to play with blocks. They have many blocks of different colors and shapes. They can build many things with blocks. + +One day, they decide to build a church with blocks. They find some white blocks and some pink blocks. They put the white blocks together to make a big house. They put the pink blocks on top to make a pointy roof. They also make a door and some windows with blocks. + +"Look, we made a church!" Lily says. "It is very pretty and big." + +"Yes, it is!" Ben says. "But it needs something more. Do we have any blocks that look like people?" + +They look around and find some small blocks with faces and clothes. They pick some of them and put them inside and outside the church. They pretend that the blocks are people who go to the church. + +"Hello, welcome to our church!" Lily says to a block with a hat. "Do you like our pink roof?" + +"Hello, thank you for inviting me!" Ben says to a block with a dress. "Your church is very nice and cozy!" + +They have fun playing with their blocks and their church. They are very proud of what they built.

Sara has a yellow ball. Ben has a blue car. They share their toys and have fun. + +One day, they go to the park with Mom. Mom says, "Be careful and stay close to me." Sara and Ben nod and run to the slide. They take turns sliding down. They laugh and scream. + +Then, they see a funny clown. The clown has a big red nose and a colorful hat. He makes balloons and gives them to the kids. Sara and Ben want a balloon too. They go to the clown and say, "Please, can we have a balloon?" + +The clown smiles and says, "Sure, what do you want?" Sara says, "I want a yellow balloon, like my ball." Ben says, "I want a blue balloon, like my car." The clown nods and makes two balloons. He gives them to Sara and Ben. They say, "Thank you, clown!" and hug their balloons. + +They are very happy. They run back to the slide with their balloons. They do not see the big dog. The big dog likes balloons. He sees Sara and Ben and runs to them. He barks and jumps. He bites Sara's balloon. Pop! The balloon bursts. Sara cries. She drops her ball. The dog bites Ben's balloon. Pop! The balloon bursts. Ben cries. He drops his car. + +Sara and Ben suffer. They lose their balloons and their toys. They run to Mom and hug her. Mom says, "I'm sorry, my loves. The dog was naughty. He did not know better. Let's go home and get some ice cream." Sara and Ben nod and wipe their tears. They still love their Mom. They hope the dog will learn to be nice. +Tim likes math. He likes to count and add and take away. He has a math book with many fun problems. He does math every day after breakfast. + +One day, Tim spills his juice on his math book. The pages get wet and sticky. Tim is sad and angry. He cries and shouts. He does not want to do math today. + +Mom hears Tim and comes to see what is wrong. She sees the wet math book and the juice on the table. She is not happy. She is grumpy. She says to Tim, "You need to be careful with your things. You cannot do math with a wet book. You need to dry it first." + +Tim does not like what Mom says. He does not want to dry his book. He wants to do math now. He says to Mom, "No, I do not want to dry it. I want to do math. Math is fun. Drying is boring." + +Mom sighs and shakes her head. She says to Tim, "You cannot argue with me. You need to listen and do as I say. Drying is not boring. It is important. If you dry your book, you can do math later. If you do not dry your book, you will ruin it and have no math at all." + +Tim thinks about what Mom says. He does not want to ruin his book. He likes his book. He wants to do math later. He decides to dry his book. He says to Mom, "OK, I will dry it. But can you help me?" + +Mom smiles and nods. She says to Tim, "Of course, I will help you. We can dry it together. And then we can do math together. How does that sound?" + +Tim smiles and nods. He says to Mom, "That sounds good. Thank you, Mom. I love you." + +Mom hugs Tim and says, "I love you too, Tim. Now let's dry your book and do some math." +Anna likes to gaze at the stars at night. She thinks they are shiny and pretty. She wonders what they are and if anyone lives there. Sometimes she makes up stories about the stars and tells them to her teddy bear. + +One night, she sees a bright light in the sky. It is not a star, it is bigger and faster. It makes a loud noise and flies over her house. Anna is scared and curious. She runs to the window and looks out. + +She sees her neighbor, Mr. Lee, in his backyard. He has a big metal thing that looks like a rocket. He is wearing a helmet and a suit. He is talking to a small box in his hand. + +"Hello, hello, this is Mr. Lee. I am ready to launch. I am going to the moon. Over." + +Anna thinks Mr. Lee is crazy. She does not believe he can go to the moon. She thinks he is playing a silly game. She wants to tell him to stop. + +She opens the window and shouts, "Mr. Lee, Mr. Lee, what are you doing? You can't go to the moon. That is not a rocket. That is a trash can. Stop being crazy. Come inside." + +Mr. Lee hears Anna and looks at her. He smiles and waves. He says, "Don't worry, Anna. I am not crazy. I am just having fun. I like to pretend I am an astronaut. Do you want to join me?" + +Anna is surprised and confused. She does not know what to say. She likes to pretend too, but not like that. She thinks Mr. Lee is very strange. She shakes her head and closes the window. She hugs her teddy bear and gazes at the stars. She hopes Mr. Lee will not hurt himself. She thinks he needs a friend. +Sara likes to do yoga with her mom. Yoga is when you make shapes with your body and breathe slowly. Sara thinks yoga is fun and good for her. She likes to stretch her arms and legs and twist her back. + +One night, Sara and her mom decide to do yoga before bed. They put on their pajamas and go to the living room. They turn off the lights and light a candle. The candle makes the room dark and cozy. Sara and her mom lay down on their mats and close their eyes. + +Sara hears her mom say, "Let's do some yoga poses to relax. We can start with the butterfly pose.

It has four wheels, two doors and a loud horn. + +"Wow, look at that car!" Mia says. "It is so pretty and fast. I want to go inside and drive it." + +"Me too," Ben says. "But who does it belong to? Maybe we should ask." + +They run to the car and look around. They do not see anyone. They question the car, but it does not answer. They touch the car, but it does not move. They try to open the door, but it is locked. + +"Maybe we should go away," Mia says. "This car is not ours. Maybe someone will be mad if they see us." + +"But I want to see more," Ben says. "Maybe there is a key somewhere. Maybe we can find it and open the door." + +He looks under the car, behind the car and on top of the car. He does not find a key. But he finds something else. It is a small, green, fuzzy plant. It has a lot of leaves and a funny smell. + +"What is this?" Ben says. He picks up the plant and shows it to Mia. + +"I don't know," Mia says. "It looks like a weed. Maybe it grows here. Maybe it is not important." + +But Ben thinks it is important. He thinks it is a clue. He thinks it has something to do with the car. He puts the plant in his pocket and says, "Come on, Mia. Let's keep looking. Maybe we can find more clues." + +They keep looking, but they do not find more clues. They only find more trouble. The plant in Ben's pocket starts to make him itch. He feels a tickle on his leg, then on his arm, then on his neck. He scratches and scratches, but the itch does not go away. He starts to cry and says, "Mia, help me. Something is wrong. I have a bad itch. It hurts." + +Mia looks at Ben and sees red spots on his skin. She remembers what her mom told her once. She says, "Ben, I think you have a rash. I think you are allergic to the plant. I think you need to go to the doctor." + +She takes the plant out of Ben's pocket and throws it away. She takes Ben's hand and says, "Come on, Ben. Let's go home. Let's tell our moms what happened. They will know what to do." + +They run to their homes and tell their moms. Their moms are worried and take them to the doctor. The doctor gives Ben some medicine and a band-aid. He tells him to stay away from the plant and the car. He tells him to rest and drink water. He tells him he will be fine soon. + +Mia and Ben hug and say sorry to each other. They say they will not play with the car or the plant again. They say they will only play with their toys and their friends. They say they learned their lesson. + +They go back to their homes and take a nap. They dream of a perfect day in the park.

She put it back on the princess doll's head and said, "There, she is as good as new. And you know what? You are a princess too.

They open them and see pictures of toys. They say, "Wow, Santa. Thank you. These are the toys we want. You are very nice." + +Santa says, "You are welcome, boys. I am glad you like your letters. But remember, these are not your toys yet. These are your wishes. You have to wait until Christmas to get your toys. And you have to keep being good children. Can you do that?" + +Tom and Sam nod. They say, "Yes, Santa. We can do that. We will wait until Christmas. And we will keep being good children. We promise." They hug Santa and say, "Thank you, Santa.

They say, "Bye, Santa. Ho ho ho." They look at their letters and smile. They are very happy. They learn that being good is important. And that waiting is hard, but worth it. They bow to each other and say, "Let's go play." They run to their toys and play. They are good friends. +Timmy was very impatient. He wanted to play with his new toy car, but Mommy said he had to wait. She said she had to go to the bathroom and he had to stay in his room. Timmy did not like waiting. He was bored and curious. + +He decided to sneak out of his room and discover what Mommy was doing in the bathroom. He tiptoed down the hall and opened the bathroom door. He saw Mommy sitting on the toilet, but she did not see him. He saw a shiny bottle on the sink. He wanted to see what was inside. + +He grabbed the bottle and opened it. It smelled funny.

Fluffy was curious about the salad and wanted to taste it. He jumped out from under the table and tried to grab the bowl with his paws. + +Lily was surprised and scared. She shouted, "No, Fluffy, bad cat! This is not for you. This is for dad and me and mom. Go away!" + +She tried to hold the bowl away from Fluffy, but he was too fast and strong. He pushed the bowl with his paws and made it fall to the floor. The salad spilled all over the carpet and the bowl broke into pieces. + +Lily started to cry. She was sad and angry. She loved her salad and now it was ruined. She said, "Fluffy, you are so naughty. You made a big mess. You are not my friend anymore." + +Her dad heard her cry and came to see what happened. He saw the salad and the bowl on the floor and Fluffy licking his lips. He said, "Oh, no, what a disaster. I'm sorry, Lily. Fluffy was very bad. He should not have done that. He was too nosy." + +He hugged Lily and said, "Don't worry, sweetie. It's not your fault. You made a wonderful salad and I'm very proud of you. We can clean this up and make another salad later. How about that?" + +Lily sniffed and said, "OK, dad. Thank you. I love you." + +She looked at Fluffy and said, "And you, Fluffy, you have to say sorry. And you have to stay away from the salad. And you have to be nice to me. Or else I will close the door and you will not come in." + +Fluffy meowed and rubbed his head against Lily's leg. He was sorry and he wanted to be her friend again. He said, "Meow, meow, meow." + +Lily smiled and said, "OK, Fluffy, I forgive you. But you have to be good. And you have to eat your own food. Not salad. Salad is for people." + +She petted Fluffy and said, "Come on, let's go and help mom and dad clean up. And then we can have lunch together. And maybe some dessert. Do you like dessert, Fluffy?" + +Fluffy purred and said, "Meow, meow, meow." + +The end. +Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play games. They had many games, like ball, puzzle, and cards. They also had a game with letters, where they had to make words with the letters. Tom and Lily were very competitive. They always wanted to win the game and gain more points. + +One day, they played the letter game with their mom. Mom gave them each a pile of letters and said, "Let's see who can make the most words with these letters. You have five minutes. Go!" Tom and Lily started to look at their letters and make words. They put the words on the table and said them out loud. + +"I have cat, hat, and rat," said Tom. + +"I have dog, log, and fog," said Lily. + +They kept making words until the time was up. Mom counted the words and said, "Wow, you both did very well. You each have ten words. It's a tie!" + +Tom and Lily looked at each other and smiled. They were happy that they both did well. They hugged each other and said, "Good job, twin!" + +Mom smiled and said, "You are both very smart and creative. I'm proud of you. Do you want to play another round?" + +Tom and Lily nodded and said, "Yes, please!" + +They picked up their letters and mixed them up. They were ready to play again. They liked the letter game. They liked to make words and learn new words. They also liked to play with each other. They were competitive, but they were also kind and fair. They had fun with the game and with their mom. They had a good name for their game. They called it "Word Twins". +One day, Lily and Ben were playing in the park with their mom. They saw a big red truck with a loud siren and a long hose. It was a fireman truck. They wanted to see it up close, so they ran towards it. + +"Wait, kids, be careful!" their mom said. "Don't go too near the truck. The firemen are busy working." + +But Lily and Ben were curious. They wanted to know what the firemen were doing. They saw a fireman wearing a yellow hat and a black coat. He was holding a big axe. He looked strong and brave. + +"Hello, fireman!" Lily said. "What are you doing with that axe?" + +The fireman smiled and knelt down to talk to them. He was very friendly and helpful. +
